This evening join Brad Damas and the infamous Travis at Drowsy Poet in Lynchburg, VA @ 9PM for a full night of musical fun. I’m really looking forward to the special guest collaborator with Mr. Damas. (rumor has it it’s non other than underground pop sensation, Anna Chaffins) I’ll see you there… we can find out together or you just hold me until the fear subsides.
After you go to a concert where they’ve marked your hand with blue sharpie. You should wash it off your hand that very same night. If you don’t, when the blue marks show up on your face you won’t freak out for about 60 seconds wondering why you’re dying.
When will dumb Myspace Surveys leave the pop culture palette?
I really think this is an issue. With bulletin explanations like, “I know you hate these, but I filled it out anyway” or, “I’m bored” and my favorite, “I’m bored Part 2″. I don’t know if it’s the survey or if it’s the overall lack of responsibility that your “friend” took 45 minutes to think up one word answers to whether they can remember who the last person they kissed or their first date. Almost as bad are the memories requests or as I like to call them the “Remember a time when I was cool and now tell me about it” post.
I know it’s raging against the machine that is not going away but I’ll do it anyway.
Also..while we’re here.. what’s the deal with the guilt ridden, “if you’re a christian…” or “if you love jesus…” bulletins and emails then I just forward an e-mail and then I don’t feel guilt ridden. That’s dumb. (editors note: I’m aware that I just gave a 4th grade answer to a problem.. but it IS dumb. so there) I suppose it would be one thing if something was awe inspiring or really well done but, it’s the cheezy cheap pictures of bunnies and waterfalls with really old music recorded badly. Or what about how you can depict jesus on the cross using punctuation marks? And then somebody says: “this is beautiful–i must share it”. I don’t want to share that stuff, I don’t want people to think I like it or that I’m inspired by it.
Give me some of your thoughts on this.. just click the numer next to the title of this post.
Touted as a “must see artist” by the Washington times in 2005, Andy Zipf has yet to disapoint. Finding sucess, like so many in this technology age, at the hands of satellite radio. What you’ll here in the first LIVE event ever from THE DROP is a man with a story to tell and some incrdible tools to craft it with.
The Los Angeles native has been slaying the crowds mostly on the east coast for the past few years. Honing his craft and only recently making the push for regular tour dates. Damas will be one to watch in the southeast in the coming years as his star is on the rise.
